Hotmail supports three settings for the junk mail filter in Hotmail that determine WHAT goes into the junk e-mail folder.

Low, Standard and Exclusive.

If your junk e-mail filter is set to “Exclusive” and  your friend is not on your “contacts” or the “safe senders” list, his/her email will land in the junk mail folder.

If you notice mail from your friends going to the junk mail folder, make sure you add them to your contacts or to the safe senders list.

Here are some easy to follow steps to manage your “Exclusive” Hotmail spam settings.
